Never Stop or Go Back

If you are on the way towards Allah, then run.
If it was hard for you, then jog.
If you got tired, then walk.
And if you can’t, then crawl, 

And never stop or go back.
.

-Imam Al-Shafi‘ī


‘It was We Who created man, and We Know what dark suggestions his souls makes to him:
For We are nearer to him than (his) jugular vein.’

[50:16]
